 Abstract

The Keralan government is the owner of Kerala Clays and Ceramics Products Ltd. It contains China Clay mines in Payangadi, Kannapuram, and Nileshwar that are useful for ceramics, rubber, pesticides, and ultramarine. The state is experiencing a number of environmental effects as a result of unchecked mining. Additionally, it has detrimental effects on health and water quality. What the authorities have described as promising mining potential could spell tragedy for the people, they think. During the summer, the village's sole supply of drinking water comes from Madayipara's water outflow. The incursion of salty seawater into the village's groundwater will devastate Madayi if Madayipara is demolished. "In reality, the plateau operates as a very crucial watershed for the surrounding region". Streams in the surrounding area have also been transformed into death traps for the fish that live there due to the chemicals generated from the garbage dissolving in the rainwater and seeping into the ground water. In order to paint a clear picture of the suffering endured by the indigenous people as a result of clay mining in the Pazhayangadi area, the current study, ENVIRONMENTAL AND HEALTH EFFECTS OF CLAY MINING AT PAZHAYANGADI, was conducted.

With the help of national parties, regional parties in India's political institutions have become more credible and influential, especially in coalition administrations. The national parties had no intention of doing it alone; they intended to forge coalitions with the regional parties and maybe even assume power with them. The national political system may now be negotiated with by the regional parties. Governments of H during the United Front. The Gowdas, D. and I. The provincial parties have assumed fundamental responsibilities in resolving disputes, K. Gujral. Regional political parties had an impact on the role of the chief manager during the coalition era. According to his own judgment, he is now unable to designate his office ministers. But other parties have demands, especially regional parties that want a certain portfolio, and he must meet their terms. The prime minister is no longer making policy decisions alone; instead, a Steering or Coordinating Committee will do so in response to pressure from regional political groups. During the alliance period, regional political parties became more active, shifting the focus away from national concerns and onto local ones. From what we can tell from our research, the DMK's demand for Tamils in Sri Lanka is only one example of how it routinely sabotaged the Union administration throughout the UPA alliance's tenure. In accordance with the desires of the state administration headed by the DMK, the Association administration in Geneva cast its vote on Sri Lanka at that meeting. As an alliance partner, the biggest regional group in western Bengal, TMC, has pushed the UPA system government to prevent Bangladesh from resolving the Teesta waterway issue without its consent. Several distinct occurrences of this kind have place under different coalition administrations.

Ecological theory known as Ecocriticism, is the study of the relationship between the human and nature. Samit Basu a versatile Indian author known for his amalgamate genres and delve such ecological issues in his novels. In his novel Terror on the Titanic illustrates this by associating ecological theory through the characters, like Nathaniel. He spends much of his life in the jungle. There he learns to observe, adapt and respect nature's complex rhythms and dangers. Unlike many who view the jungle as wild or hostile, Nathaniel feels it as a home and the animals as a teacher.

 Abstract

This research explores the perceptions of media practitioners toward the role of public relations (PR) in the media industry, focusing on the relationship between experience levels and attitudes toward PR functions. Drawing on data from business, education, and media stakeholders, the study investigates key issues such as PR's role in journalism, its contribution to news quality, and the ethical challenges of the PR-journalism dynamic. While there is broad agreement that PR practitioners support journalists by providing timely and accurate information, the data reveal variations in opinions based on experience levels. Less experienced practitioners tend to view PR more favorably, seeing it as a partner in content creation and dissemination, whereas more experienced professionals express greater skepticism about PR's influence, particularly regarding its promotional tendencies. Despite these differences, the study found no statistically significant correlation between years of experience and overall perceptions of PR. The findings highlight the evolving and complex nature of the media-PR relationship, emphasizing the need for both fields to maintain ethical standards and adapt to the changing media landscape.

 Abstract

: Piles are essential foundation elements designed to transfer load through varying soil layers. Determining their load-carrying capacity is crucial, especially under cyclic loading condition that simulate real-world scenarios. This study investigation the cyclic load behavior of model piles in sand, focusing on elastic and plastic settlement components. Experiments were conducted on piles of varying diameter and length in river sand. The piles were driven using hydraulic jacks, and load-settlement curves were generated to evaluate ultimate capacity. Results indicate that larger pile diameters exhibit higher skin friction in sand, and the load-carrying capacity for cyclic loading differs significantly from direct static loading due to settlement behavior.
